I had an ulcer right before I was diagnosed with IBS-C.
I was treated with heavy duty antibotics for 2 weeks about 3000mg/day plus Prevacid for 3 months. They say that 95% of ulcers are caused by the H. Pylori bacteria. that's why all the antibotics.

The Prevacid you can get over the counter...I think the over the counter dose is 75mg, but the doctor had me take 150mg per day. The prevacid and prilosec are similar. I think both are over the counter. Once my ulcer was healed, I was diagnosed with IBS-C, three months later..... No spice foods or coffee, sharp pain below the breast bone on the left side....everything bland.
